I have started my new marine setup last month. Was maintaining a saltwater aquarium until my 3.5 yrs old grandson threw a toy and broke the front glass.....:(. Now again have started a typical marine system from scratch. I am a big fan of natural ecosystem and has successfully maintained the same for 3yrs but due to space constraint have switched to a typical marine system. However I would like to advice my fellow marine hobbyists to go with a natural ecosystem as this is cheaper and easier to maintain and also provides live food for fish and corals.

Specifications:
Tank- 36"*24"*18"
Sump - 36"*18"*15"
Lighting - DIY LED fixtures

I have seen all of Ashokji's setups and each one has a uniqueness and gentle touch of his special care. There is tremendous effort and dedication that has gone behind each of his tanks and it is only that dedication that has secured him such wonderfull results. Although knowing Ashokji's modesty he may not agree with the same.

Warm Regards,

I have also seen all of Ashokji's setups and agree with Nirav here, They were undoubtedly the best marine setups in the region....:)

Have seen the current setup as well and its turning into a masterpiece....:)
